Hi guys,

First and foremost! Great server and a good job on everything it involves!


I am on a laptop and here are my specs:

DELL XPS 17 i7
windows 10 pro
i7 2670MQ CPU 2.20GHz with turbo
6GB RAM
Intel HD graphics 3000
NVIDIA Geforce GT 555M

An old gaming PC from Dell but still a rather solid one for Everquest [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

As from today right after the patch i have lost ALL fps in the game... When i am around 1 or 2 people i already feel a slight lag on the FPS and when it gets up to 10 it increases alot. mouse is lagging all over and clicking on the screen is delayed. Raids are pretty much unplayeble with around 3-5 FPS :/ I have been using the same machine for close to 2 years with no problems untill today after i unpacked the files and started the game. All graphics settings are at zero and has always been that way. Meaning the sky is switched off. Particle density is OFF on all 3 settings. No shaders, lighting or shadows. All is set to nothing :S What can i do? :S


Br, Rhapsodi
when you go into options > display > advanced > Card Features: does it list your graphics card or on board graphics? I had to go into Nvidia settings and force my graphics card to pick up EQ.

I also suggest for laptops opening EQ with WinEQ2 (http://www.lavishsoft.com/) as well as using RAMDisk (http://www.project1999.com/forums/sh...t=55012&page=2).
If you use RAMDisk you're going to want to trim down your EQ folder, here is a great link describing the process (https://www.reddit.com/r/project1999...vt&sh=a5756789) or you can find amazing already trimmed files...
